Although it was still during the holidays, after the sample of the thesis was mailed to Xilin University of Technology, Xu Dajiang arranged the on-campus audit and defense, and the review and defense during the holidays.

Basically, it can be understood as just going through a process.

Because of the previous final application, it had already been submitted under Xu Dajiang's reminder.

This kind of thesis "Annals of Mathematics" has already helped the school professors to confirm the quality, and the defense is nothing more than to prove that the paper was completed by the authors independently.

In view of the fact that there is no faculty paper published in the Annals of Mathematics of Xilin University of Technology, the professor responsible for the defense of this kind of internal project is somewhat lacking.

prepared a few questions casually, Qiao Ze took Liu Chenfeng to answer casually, and the process was completed.

Even the celebration banquet didn't call Qiao Ze and Liu Chenfeng, but just dragged Li Jiangao to everyone to celebrate.

Qiao Ze didn't like this meal, and the professors wouldn't be reluctant.

The biggest effect of this kind of dinner is to shorten the distance between each other.

Qiao Ze was called on this occasion, and everyone had a lot of scruples when they chatted, so it was really unnecessary.

After the application for the old project is completed, the new project is naturally approved quickly.

It's not that Qiao Ze is in a hurry, it's that the academy is in a hurry.

learned from Su Mucheng that after Qiao Ze had been in contact with Princeton University, Xu Dajiang had been thinking about it these days.

Although Qiao Ze's response to the other party was very strong, and he liked it very much, people's thoughts were always changing after all.

It is naturally good to have a way to tie Qiao Ze to the number of courtyards.

That's why the academy is very fast.

Although it is a holiday period, overtime work has to be approved as soon as possible.

The efficiency is so high that it can only be said to be breathtaking.

In two days, Xu Dajiang personally took the application submitted by Qiao Ze and ran through all the procedures.

The support fund for this project is still 500,000 yuan.

It's not that I don't want to give more, but if I want more, I need to approve more procedures, which is too troublesome.

However, these procedures can be approved during the holiday, but if it comes to transfers, you still have to wait for the National Day holiday.

Of course, Qiao Ze is not short of this money, so it naturally doesn't matter.

Xu Dajiang's series of operations gave Qiao Ze the illusion that the approval speed of the college's project was extremely fast.

This is probably the reason why many projects that are not worth it are selected.

However, there are also inefficient ones.

For example, the expert application he submitted has not been officially replied to so far. It's already October, and the communication review is about to begin, and it is possible that projects that have passed the preliminary review at this stage will be revoked at this stage.

Fortunately, when discussing the problem with Zhang Hongcai, the mathematics professor of Yanbei University briefly mentioned to him that his application for the mathematics group had already passed and had been reported to the fund management committee, and as for the final result, it was no longer out of their control.

In addition, Zhang Hongcai also hinted that Uncle Li's project would be approved at least before the meeting review.

The words weren't as dead as they were spoken, but Qiao Ze could understand the subtext.

He was quieter.

In that case, there is no need to rush. The conference review went to November, and even if he couldn't evaluate the experts, with the help of these professors, there was a high probability that he would still be able to get by.

If he really can't get by, at least someone will tell him who is against his mentor's project.

And Qiao Ze still has his own business, since the school quickly approved his new project, he plans to directly send the paper that he has prepared before.

There is no way, not long after this proposition was determined, Mr. Cheng of Apple came to Xilin University of Technology, donated a scholarship, and also gave Qiao Ze some inspiration by the way, so that he could think thoroughly about the problem of this unity proof, and by the way, he used supercomputing to verify it many times, and the result was perfect.

These days, he had already begun to think about the ultimate proposition of the mathematical stage, and while he was resting his mind, Qiao Ze finished writing the paper on the new topic by the way.

Because there was no hurry this time, Qiao Ze spent about a week to complete this paper of more than 60 pages.

There was no way, Uncle Li suggested that he try to write the process in detail.

It was really not for the research funds that dragged it out until this time, but mainly because Qiao Ze felt that he had to fulfill his previous promises.

After all, he promised Liu Chenfeng that he would take him with him for the subject he applied for this time.

As for the submission unit, it is naturally the "Annals of Mathematics".

There is no other reason, mainly because José thinks he is quite compatible with Lott Dugan.

Others don't know why the official website of the Annals of Mathematics wants to promote Qiao Ze's paper, but Qiao Ze understood the moment he knew the news.

It's a tacit understanding.

And recently, Qiao Ze also noticed that the little old man had paid some price for his willfulness. Therefore, this contribution is somewhat reciprocated.

This is probably the most meaningful thing Qiao Ze did this National Day holiday.

But as usual, Qiao Ze didn't tell anyone about such a trivial matter.

……

Lott Dugan is a bit annoyed these days.

After the publication of the journal, the electronic version of Josser's paper was published directly on the website.

The number of downloads is amazing.

It's not just the call to call of the name José.

The key is that the degree of publicity from the Annals of Mathematics has made too many people have too much expectation, and many people are not convinced.

Being able to construct a causal learning framework through group theory is enough to confirm Joser's name as a genius.

It is also confirmed that there is an upgrade of the crowd intelligence voice system for M60P, which is born from Qiao Ze's theory, and even many papers published in a row have proved this.

But application and number theory are, after all, two different fields.

As you can see from the title, Qiao Ze's paper published in the Annals of Mathematics is in the field of pure number theory.

And it was also hung on the official website for more than half a month to warm up for publicity, which is a rare thing for many years.

It is difficult to publish papers in the "Annals of Mathematics", at least 6 journals should publish more than 80 articles every year, but those who can enjoy this level of publicity may not be able to have one article in a few years.

So on the day the electronic version of Qiao Ze's paper was launched, the number of downloads was amazing, reaching more than 3,000 times.

Don't underestimate this number.

According to statistics, there are only more than 40,000 first-class mathematicians in the world, and they are scattered in different subdivided research directions.

If it is specific to number theory, there is less research.

Among mathematicians who are interested in a certain direction, the number three thousand is already very terrifying.

A few days is enough time for everyone to read José's paper and then give an evaluation.

That's where the pressure comes from the Annals of Mathematics, or the little old man Lott Dugan.

Fame is, after all, a double-edged sword.

While people are convinced, they will also put forward higher requirements for the journal itself.

There is no doubt that the vast majority of people still think that Qiao Ze's paper meets the requirement of being published in the Annals of Mathematics, and even in this year's paper, it can be regarded as outstanding. After all, Qiao Ze still proposed some new mathematical tools, and there were still a lot of dry goods.

However, the publication of the Annals of Mathematics on its official website for half a month for this paper made many mathematicians feel incomprehensible.

Not to that extent, you know?

If Qiao Ze's paper is eligible to be warmed up and promoted in advance by the official website of the "Annals of Mathematics" for more than half a month, not to mention previous years, there will be at least seven to eight papers this year that are also worthy of such promotion.

So why do you want to push this one, and not other math celebrities?

Mathematicians are upset, and they will be more real.

Not only was it directly criticized on Facebook, but the official email address of the Annals of Mathematics and the private email address of Lotter Duggan also received many questions during this time.

Actually, Lott Dugan himself doesn't care much about this.

The response given is also uniform.

"Please pay attention to the author's age before questioning, Joe is only eighteen years old! Yes, if you can write a paper at this level at the age of eighteen, I don't mind using the little power in my hands to win you the status of the Annals of Mathematics in advance. Do you need to remind you why the age limit for the Fields Medal is 40 years old? ”

Not surprisingly, Lott Dugan's formulaic response email was posted directly on Facebook.

Then it attracted a wave of verbal criticism.

To sum it up, it's three words "unprofessional"!

Many people understand Lotte Dugan's careful thinking, and how talented an eighteen-year-old child is to be able to issue such a paper.

But it doesn't mean that everyone can accept this explanation.

Academics are academics.

You Princeton want to poach people, want to curry favor with a future mathematical genius, why do you consume the professionalism of the Annals of Mathematics for publicity?

If Qiao Ze writes a paper worthy of publicity in advance in the future, everyone will naturally have no opinion.

But this paper just didn't meet the accepted standards for publicity, which has a fart to do with the age of the main author!

Obviously, this view cannot be said to be wrong.

But in Lott Dugan's eyes, these people are sour. He didn't bother to pay attention.

But the Annals of Mathematics is not Lott Dugan's, he is just an editor-in-chief.

So many people directly began to complain, and even the mailboxes of Princeton University and the adjacent Princeton Institute for Advanced Study collapsed.

Lott Dugan is indeed an old man, but he is not the only old mathematician.

Not to mention Lotter Du's slightly radical style, making him almost as many friends as enemies.

In short, when everyone was celebrating the National Day, the world mathematics community also quarreled over Qiao Ze's paper.

Qiao Ze also knew the news.

Although he rarely goes to the Internet, Lott Dugan is in constant email contact with him.

The old man had also complained in front of Qiao Ze.

He even blackmailed the Entu newspaper in the mail.

"Oh, Joe, did you see that? I am fighting against the whole world in order to support you! It's a very, very scary thing! So you were really so ruthless that you didn't even consider coming to Princeton to work on that wonderful subject with me? Trust me, if you come once, you will find that this is your holy place. ”

If you change someone, you will probably be stimulated by this statement to the point that goosebumps all over your body will rise.

Fortunately, Qiao Ze didn't have so many chaotic thoughts and ideas in his head.

In fact, in some ways, Qiao Ze has been so simple that it is terrifying, as if if there are study materials written in his folder, it must be study materials. Even if it's a video, it's still a learning material.

Chen Yiwen has the most say in this matter.

Because he was really 100% sure somehow, Qiao Ze looked so long, and he hadn't even seen a special product of the island country.

The sassy words that can make many little boys smile can only be exchanged for his confused eyes when they are told to Qiao Ze.

The look in his eyes also seemed to ask again, "Shouldn't you have some serious illness?" ”。

For this reason, Chen Yiwen also sympathized with Su Mucheng from the bottom of his heart for three seconds. Thinking that he felt that the two of them were really going to get married in the future, Su Mucheng might be embarrassed if he wanted to teach Qiao Ze something.

So José still declined Lott Dugan's invitation as always, specifically adding a sentence at the end of the email after a brief chat about a few math problems.

"Lot, thank you for your support, but I don't want to go. However, the new project has been completed, and I have uploaded the new paper through the submission system of the Annals of Mathematics. I hope this paper can be helpful to your research. ”

It's just that it was already two o'clock in the afternoon after Qiao Ze finished writing this email and clicked send, and the hateful jet lag made the old man opposite sleep soundly.

……

The small town of Princeton, USA.

The weather in the town in October is very jumpy, maybe more than ten degrees the day before.

But when the rain passes, the temperature drops to single digits.

When he woke up in the morning, listening to the sound of the dripping rain coming from the window, Lott Dugan felt a little gloomy.

People tend to prefer sunny weather as they get older.

Especially in the autumn of Princeton, even if the sky is clear, the temperature is only eighteen or nine degrees, even if you stand directly in the sun, you will not feel hot, only warm.

Wake up as usual, wash up, and the wife has prepared breakfast, a sandwich with a glass of milk.

Drop the cat off the table and start breakfast.

Today's sandwich also served with an omelette and it was delicious.

When he went out, Lott Dugan brought a large umbrella with him.

The advantage is that it can hide his whole person in the umbrella, so that he can be confident and not greet anyone along the way.

No way, his mood is really not beautiful.

And so I walked all the way into his office.

Habitually turn on the computer, and the pleasant email prompt sound will resound throughout the office.

Yesterday I received more than a dozen more emails.

Needless to say, a small number of former students sent condolences, and some expressed dissatisfaction.

And José's.

The jet lag made it difficult for the two to communicate instantly.

After all, both of them still have their own things to do.

Clicking on the email and looking at it, Lott Dugan blinked, then took off his glasses, wiped them, and confirmed them again.

Ignoring the nonsense that José refused the invitation, his attention was focused on the second half.

Have you completed a new task?

Already submitted?

Well, one paper a month?

How many of his cats gave birth at once last time?

Thinking of strange things in his mind, Lott Dugan did not reply, but clicked on the paper submission system with a suspicious attitude, and then quickly found the paper submitted by Qiao Ze, and then fell into deep thought.
